Hoists machine
Hoists other than skip hoists, pulley tackle type
HSN 8425 19 10 (hoists machine — pulley tackle and non-skip hoists, other than powered) is not covered by a Bureau of Indian Standards Quality Control Order and carries no Partner Government Agency clearance requirement at the tariff-line level. Import follows the standard customs procedure: Importer-Exporter Code (IEC), bill of entry, commercial invoice, packing list. Other lifting and material-handling equipment within Chapter 84 — such as electrically powered hoists, winches, or industrial jacks — may fall under sibling tariff lines that carry compliance obligations.
The absence of compliance at this tariff line is specific to the tariff-line level and does not extend to mechanically or electrically powered variants, which are separately classified within heading 8425 and may attract Quality Control Order or safety-certification requirements. Re-classification by customs on examination — for instance, where a declared manual hoist incorporates a motor — triggers retrospective compliance, including detention pending the relevant certification. Verify the drive mechanism, rated capacity, and intended industrial application against the customs tariff before relying on the absence of compliance.
